RunGap - First Site/App to Use Magellan Active API

[Anthony Pelosi]

Hello Magellan Active Developers,

I just wanted to give a special shout out to Kristian Ottosen and his application RunGap <http://www.rungap.com/> for being the first to use the Magellan Active API. RunGap displays your activities across all of the major fitness sites/apps including a friend feed that merges your friend's activities across a number of fitness sites/apps. Well done Kristian! If you haven't installed and used RunGap you should give it a try. We will be advertising his application and any other site/app who uses the API on our Magellan Active website after we wrap up our next release (register and log in with Facebook).

Yes we only have one site/app using out API, but all APIs had to start with their first user at some point, and it's just one of the many responsibilities I am trying to juggle right now so I haven't spent much time evangelizing. But we actually have a really cool API feature launching within the next few days that should make it easier to get going using the API. It's a graphical user interface that builds the HTTP responses and executes them for you. I'll be sending out a blog post on http://magellanfitness.wordpress.com/ soon and will send out another email to the group in case you're not following one of our social channels.

If anyone has questions or suggestions feel free to send an email my way and thanks again for showing interest in the Magellan Active API!
